The issue is now between locofocl in the Legislature and locofocos out of il. It is dearly made, and there is no csrapo from il. The locofoco press has lied most shamelully or the locofoco members aro guilty of falsi hood. On Ihe ouc hand il is asictled that the Tax Law is a Whig measure, on the oiher it is unequivocally denied. On the one hand it is aieried that the "democratic" memlwrs volud almost to a man iig-jinsl lliu law, on the other il is affirmed that "a largo portion" uf them voted fur it. On Ike one hand tho law is denounriil as iniquitous, unequal and oppressive "rAictcn lax' of ihe must odious nature "worse than the stamp act" and on Ihe other it is affirmed that none but brokers, capitalists and wvatiliy merchants are opposed lo il; and llul this ought in commend it lu Ihe support of "dein' crau!"

More than lifty-eighl millions of the ninrly-nino exported arc consumed by Grvst Britain and hut dependencies. A table uf imports would show the same extraordinary ratio in fa vor ol llritih trade. It must be rccolluclrd, however, by Iho western farmer, that nearly forty million out of the fifty -eight exported lo Great Hrilnin is Cotton, the raw material, taken from necessity, and fur whirh slic makes u pay well after it is manufactured. Our trade with Franca is absolutely insignificant, being but little over thirteen miliums uf dollars. The Hanse Towns, Holland and dependencies and llelgium togcther, consume of our export, less ihau eight millions of dollars. It would be of some interest to get at the items of Wheat and Flour alone, consumed by Ureal Hntain, the main con turner of our domestic produce. Of vegetable and nniinul food exported, amounting in all to IA,0UU,(Mr, England consume nearly 9,0Ui,l)(H). Of vegetable food and bread-slull's alone, she consumes 0,31 Wlmu wu compiiro these csulli with those presented by the Home Market ta unties, we cuiuioi but be aslmiistiud at lliu importance- attached lathe foreign market, by a visionary class of free traders, who arc inresinul in lliiiir clamors against a system calculated lo build up the home market. It is now estimated, from the moil reliable data, lhat the New Kngland Hiales are consumers of the products of oilier Slates, to the amount of one hundred million of dllar$; an amount greater than our aggregate exports lo all the rest uf the world. In MaiarhinuUs alone, according to slaliiliea adduced in iho halls of Congress, several years since, over forty millions of the products of other State are consumed. This amount, it may be safely estimated, in viiw of the extraordinary increase of manufacturing establish men is and ttie increased consumption of domestic good', ha increased lo fifty millions of dollars. While England consumes 'J,IK0,- 000 of our bread-stuffs, and vegelablu food, Manuchuselt consumes in bread-stuff ahmo, including Flour, Com, 4c, about $7,0(X,000. Add lo this the animal and vegetable food, and the nggrcgaia will be swelled to ut least twttt e million uf iollin, or more than $.1,000,000 over Ihe whole amount con sumed by (ireat Britain, and between one and two millions more than is consumed by Lnglnud, France and all ihe German States ! Ki-(iov. ISaiitlkt estimated, in hi message last winter, from what he pronounced reliable data, the exports of Ohio at twenty-five millions of dollar. Three- fourth ol this nmount, at least, may bu clashed u Agricultural products; showing thai Ohio export morv than dunhit the amouul consumed by (ireat lliilain and her dependencies! Governor .Shannon it whs, wc believe, who estimated the surplus wheal of Ohio at U,UU0,(X of buihuts, in the year IHU. If wu suppose this to he worth 7cts. por bushel, wo find that the surpliti Whtal of Ohio nloue, is worth more than all ihu agricultural products uf tliij country consumed by Great Britain ! ! Much facts as these appeal lo the understanding of the agricultural population uf the West. They scalier to Ihe winds whole volume! of theorim, and tell us in a language not 10 be misunderstood, that the home market is our only dependence, our only salvation a a nnlmn. The foreign market is and always will be limited and precarious. If the Corn duties of Kngland were reealud to-day, she would not furnish a market for an) more limn ihu surplus grain of Ohio alono. And il i nut certain thai cum pili lion from the oilier wheal growing sections of the world, would allow u tmy more control of Ihu Hruiih markul than wo have now. We inusl look In onriclves. Wo must buy at home nnd sell at home; and if we have any thing tti export 1st us cxiorl our owu manufacture and reap the profits of the labor cipi'tiilcd in working up Ihu raw initio-rial. Wo have a vast cmiulry and vast resources.

The Teine PrHs4. There ar several (minis in this business whirh excite our attention. First, Iho clear determination manifested al nn early day by some of our leading in en, who trade in human llvsh and politics with equal gusto, lo (xisiess Texas as a counterpoise to the growth and power of the North. This was claimed by the Ghlv, iucu l Ik adjournment of Congress, lo ihe credit of Gen. Jai-ksou and (ieu. Ham. Ilouslun, the late President of Terns. It wns declared that they were Ihe originators of the fraud, and that to litem were the Suulh and Hlavery indebted fur the advantages about lu be secured to them by iho Annexation of lex.is, 1 Ins claim (of ques-liunablu patriotism 1) brought lo mind Ihe disclosures tnado by Doctor llohcrl Mayo, of Virginia, formerly of Iho War Department, in his publirulion of lt37. in which he givos a copy of a letter transmitted to Gen. J ark son, in I II JO, unclo sing certain farts in relation to Houston s movement and Ins endeavour to organizo nn exn-dilion secretly against Texas, No use was made by Gen. Jackson ol iho information thus seasonally com mu mealed, and Ihe letter was returned In Mnyo in 111.1b. 1 he boast of Ihe Globe shows why General Jsekson did not avail himself of iho information thus impartedAc tens a eopftderate of lltmtton'i. Then in the second plncu it is amusing lo ire the easy im- pudenre of the philters in this iniquity, now lh.it lhy think they have got lliu North tied hand and fool. Thai with Iho fartlier reflection that the free Stales have been led thus far by pretences llml could have deceived none but fool or iboso willing lo be humbugged f tilts the subject of all claim lo be considered in Ihe lihl of statesmanship, or as a mailer of national interest. 1 hey sink it at once into a great fraud practised by one section against another. Those who doubt this, will cease lo doubt nfler reading the following report uf 8am. Houston's speech recently al New -Orleans, ou this point. The llee gives tho following versiou of hit ojniung temarks on Annexation.

It is undoubtedly true lhat huuld diiliriilues at any lime occur let ween Holland and Iho United .Slates, the great lakes of Ontario, Krie, Huron, Michigan, and even Cham-plain, will be the principal theatre upon whirh ihu contest is lo lie decided. Tliese lakes are not inaptly termed inland seas, and iherc is a population and weulih growing up an mad ihcfii, und a ciimmerr floating upon their waters, which render them still more like the Ocenii. It mcy iheti be asked, can Congress do any ihing to en-courage it growth, and particularly fur surh vessels as aro calculated for war steamers and how T It is simply by ihe improvement of such harbors and rivers as may be needed, nnd such as will allow shelter and passage fur boati of the larrett clan. Theie are best cideuluted lot war steamers, but it is known lhat owners are now deterred from building boats as large as they otherwise would, because the water on the Hi. t'lmr llm (the verv important strait whirh rouuects llie upper wuh the lower fakes) is loo shallow.

In view of theso prospects, what is the duty of the farmers of this region? Certainly not to settle down in despondency, and spend their time in utelcss complaints at the dio-pensations of Providence, as we regret to find many are inclined to do. On the contrary, every sonsible man ivill cusl about in his mind to discover what plan he can devise, and articles of culture he can still adopt with rennonuble hope of succecs, for supplying the deficiency that will occur, and furnishing food next winter for his domestic animals, and pusflibly for his family. Fortunately it is not yet so late in the season but that tits grounds can be replanted with seeds of some kinds, that with ordinary summer wcathei, it mny bo hoped will produce a vtiluuble crop; and therefore no time should be lust in setting about the work of putting them in, where land is unoccupied or crops have lit i led. Here we can see the necessity there is that farmers should read more, and obtain a knowledge of a greater variety of productions than arc ordinarily cultivated in this country. As an evidence of this need, how few ot the fanners in central Ohio know any thing about the nature or value of Mangle Worlzel, Kola Ilagn, Millet, and many other crops that might be tuund of value at a time like the present? We will briefly mention a few articles that may yet be sown with success, if the season should from this time prove favorable, and give a few bints that muy aid farmers in selecting such as are best adapted to their land or other circumstances. Sowi.no Co hn ron Fodder. When it is apprehended there will be a scarcity of fodder for cattle, a few acres of good corn ground should be prepared, after it has been well moistened by rain, and sown with corn for fodder. If the ground is rich and clean, it mny be sown broadcast like oats, at the rate of three or four pecks per acre, and ploughed in lightly; if not too wet or clayey it would be the better for being rolled after sowing. Or a better method is to furrow out the ground and drop the corn in rows, any two and n hull leet apart, ami six to eight inches in tho rows, then going over it once or twice with a harrow ufiertheplunts appear, and with a small plow between tho rows at a Inter period. In this way a heavy crop of fodder may bo obtained at a trilling expense. It should bo cut before it begins to ripen or turn brown, and after wilting a duy or two, be stucked in such a manner as to sweat withoutspoiling. Common I urhips. buoulu the season continue dry for a month or so longer, and other resources gen erally fail, it will still be in time to sow common turnips, and the prospect of a moist fall will be in favor of sowing this crop. Now land, with a good proportion of suud and muck, is the best tor turnips ; next to this, any good bottom land, or rich moist soil. that is not otherwise appropriated. The seed should not be sown earlier than the last week in July, in this climate, as the hot sun of mid -summer is unfavorable to their growth. Potatoes. Farmers who have plenty of potatoes ou hand fit for planting and good land for the purpose, should immediately put in several acres. We found one of the best farmers of Licking county ploughing land for this purpose a day or two since, and he assured us that he generally found the lirst week in June, the most suitable season lor planting potatoes for winter uso and even the middle of June he considered a good time. The potatoe crop mny prove a very good one this year, and every body knows it enn be made a substitute fur almost every olhur, both for tho sustenance of man and beast. Let us have plenty of potatoes, then, next winter, if there should be a scarcity of whoat, onts, and corn, and they will provo ut great value to the farmer. Huck-W hk at, This, wo believe, is the latest article th it can be sown for producing a crop the same year ; and it occupies less time in coming to maturity than any other. Tho heat of summer being unfavorable to its growth, it ia commonly sown in the month of Augtwt and harvested in October. We aro not sure whether it is generally found to succeed well in tho south part of this Htate, but we pre-sumo it is a pretty certain crop, if the fall is not too dry and hot. It will be well to sow this, if other tilings lail. Thr Mammoth or Ilr.FTii.Es. In the county of Washington, Alabama, not far from Mobile the fossil remains of a monster in the animal creation havo been discovered by Dr. Ai.rkrt C. Koch. We find nn account of it in Dr. K.'s words in the Mobtlo Daily Advertiser; it hns been railed by him ZtiUo-don isUlimnniif in honor of Professor sSillimam of Vale College. Hero follows a description of the monster: "I have succeeded in bringing to light the very nearly complete skclton of a moat colossal and terrible replilo, that may be justly termed the king of the kings of reptiles. Its fenilh is one hundred nnd four fret the solid portions of the vertebra are from H to lo inches in length, and Irom o to 14 inches in diameter, each averaging 75 pounds in weight Its greatly clongnted jaws are armed wttli not less than forty incisor or cutting teeih, four canine teeth or fangs, and eight molars or grinders. Theso teeth all fit into each other when the jaws are closed, and it is clear that tho animal was of the carnivorous nature. The eyes were evidently large, and were prominently ait im tod on the forehead, giving the animal tho power of keeping a constant and vigorous watch for ils prey. The body hod members attached resembling paddles or fins, which in proportion to Ihe size of Ihe animal wore small, and were doubtless intended to propel the body of this enormous creature through the wntcrs ot those large rivers or seas, which it inhabited or frequented. Each of these paddles or fins is composed of UL bones, which form in union, seven freely articulating joints. Tho ribs are of n very peculiar shape and execedinrz- ly numerous.

Cir cuit Court, in session on the l:hh ult., at the capital of Indiana. The cose involved the following points, as sinicu in tuc mate acnunei ; lst. That slavery was only a State or local insti tution: That Slavery is batted on local laws, not sustained or supported by either moral, natural, or national law: 3. That if a slave escape from the State in which ho is hold in slavery, either by accident, consent or, nis mnntcr, or ngainn mat consent, ne is foruver free: 4. That the ordinance of 1787 orcan- ixing iho North Weslcrn Territory, only guarantees the delivering up ot fugitives from labor to citizens of the original States, and thttt as Missouri (from whence tho slaves escaped,) was not one of tho orig-nal States, Ihe citizens ol Indiana were not bound to dclivor up to M ifsfiii r i her runaway slaves." The opinion of tho Court wns delivered by Judge McLean. Ho admittod tho correctness of tho propositions 1, M and -'t, but overruled Ihe demurrer to tho declaration, decided that if Indiana had remain-ed a territory, under the ordinance, alio would not havo been bound to deliver up the slaves; but having adopted a constitution, which in part nbrogntes tho law oi me ordinance, she is bound by tho constitution of the United Slates; and Missouri being one of tho great sister family of States, is entitled to all the rights and privileges of tho original Slates, from an outer oiaies in ihe union.

Mr. Calhoun, like Mr. Clny and Mr. Webster, n fond of agricultural life; and, when not engaged in professional duties, he occupies himself on his estate at Fort Hill. About forty cultivated acres surround his mansion, and other sections of his grounds, according to the Express, aro occupied wuh cotton, corn, peas, end various other crops. He has drained his grounds, and introduced rotation of crops according to the report of a Com mitleo who visited it with an unexampled degree of success. The stock on his farm consisted of hogs, horses, aud cattle of good blood, and in excollent condition. His negro house ia a spacious stono building 200 feet long, divided into spacious and comfortable apartments. In nil parts of ins estate ha has blended the useful and ornamental, introducing admirable tillage with groat horticultural taste and benuty.

Our trade with Franca is absolutely insignificant, being but little over thirteen miliums uf dollars.

It is now estimated, from the moil reliable data, lhat the New Kngland Hiales are consumers of the products of oilier Slates, to the amount of one hundred million of dllar$; an amount greater than our aggregate exports lo all the rest uf the world.

This amount, it may be safely estimated, in viiw of the extraordinary increase of manufacturing establish men is and ttie increased consumption of domestic good', ha increased lo fifty millions of dollars. While England consumes 'J,IK0,- 000 of our bread-stuffs, and vegelablu food, Manuchuselt consumes in bread-stuff ahmo, including Flour, Com, 4c, about $7,0(X,000.

This was claimed by the Ghlv, iucu l Ik adjournment of Congress, lo ihe credit of Gen. Jai-ksou and (ieu. Ham. Ilouslun, the late President of Terns.

Through a large portion of Ohio the grass crop will evidently be an almost entire failure, owing to the severity of the drought, and there is reason to apprehend lhat most uf tho other productions of the farm will be very light crops. In view of theso prospects, what is the duty of the farmers of this region? Certainly not to settle down in despondency, and spend their time in utelcss complaints at the dio-pensations of Providence, as we regret to find many are inclined to do. On the contrary, every sonsible man ivill cusl about in his mind to discover what plan he can devise, and articles of culture he can still adopt with rennonuble hope of succecs, for supplying the deficiency that will occur, and furnishing food next winter for his domestic animals, and pusflibly for his family. Fortunately it is not yet so late in the season but that tits grounds can be replanted with seeds of some kinds, that with ordinary summer wcathei, it mny bo hoped will produce a vtiluuble crop; and therefore no time should be lust in setting about the work of putting them in, where land is unoccupied or crops have lit i led. Here we can see the necessity there is that farmers should read more, and obtain a knowledge of a greater variety of productions than arc ordinarily cultivated in this country. As an evidence of this need, how few ot the fanners in central Ohio know any thing about the nature or value of Mangle Worlzel, Kola Ilagn, Millet, and many other crops that might be tuund of value at a time like the present? We will briefly mention a few articles that may yet be sown with success, if the season should from this time prove favorable, and give a few bints that muy aid farmers in selecting such as are best adapted to their land or other circumstances. Sowi.no Co hn ron Fodder. When it is apprehended there will be a scarcity of fodder for cattle, a few acres of good corn ground should be prepared, after it has been well moistened by rain, and sown with corn for fodder. If the ground is rich and clean, it mny be sown broadcast like oats, at the rate of three or four pecks per acre, and ploughed in lightly; if not too wet or clayey it would be the better for being rolled after sowing. Or a better method is to furrow out the ground and drop the corn in rows, any two and n hull leet apart, ami six to eight inches in tho rows, then going over it once or twice with a harrow ufiertheplunts appear, and with a small plow between tho rows at a Inter period. In this way a heavy crop of fodder may bo obtained at a trilling expense. It should bo cut before it begins to ripen or turn brown, and after wilting a duy or two, be stucked in such a manner as to sweat withoutspoiling. Common I urhips. buoulu the season continue dry for a month or so longer, and other resources gen erally fail, it will still be in time to sow common turnips, and the prospect of a moist fall will be in favor of sowing this crop. Now land, with a good proportion of suud and muck, is the best tor turnips ; next to this, any good bottom land, or rich moist soil. that is not otherwise appropriated. The seed should not be sown earlier than the last week in July, in this climate, as the hot sun of mid -summer is unfavorable to their growth. Potatoes. Farmers who have plenty of potatoes ou hand fit for planting and good land for the purpose, should immediately put in several acres. We found one of the best farmers of Licking county ploughing land for this purpose a day or two since, and he assured us that he generally found the lirst week in June, the most suitable season lor planting potatoes for winter uso and even the middle of June he considered a good time. The potatoe crop mny prove a very good one this year, and every body knows it enn be made a substitute fur almost every olhur, both for tho sustenance of man and beast. Let us have plenty of potatoes, then, next winter, if there should be a scarcity of whoat, onts, and corn, and they will provo ut great value to the farmer. Huck-W hk at, This, wo believe, is the latest article th it can be sown for producing a crop the same year ; and it occupies less time in coming to maturity than any other. Tho heat of summer being unfavorable to its growth, it ia commonly sown in the month of Augtwt and harvested in October. We aro not sure whether it is generally found to succeed well in tho south part of this Htate, but we pre-sumo it is a pretty certain crop, if the fall is not too dry and hot. It will be well to sow this, if other tilings lail. Thr Mammoth or Ilr.FTii.Es. In the county of Washington, Alabama, not far from Mobile the fossil remains of a monster in the animal creation havo been discovered by Dr. Ai.rkrt C. Koch. We find nn account of it in Dr. K.'s words in the Mobtlo Daily Advertiser; it hns been railed by him ZtiUo-don isUlimnniif in honor of Professor sSillimam of Vale College. Hero follows a description of the monster: "I have succeeded in bringing to light the very nearly complete skclton of a moat colossal and terrible replilo, that may be justly termed the king of the kings of reptiles. Its fenilh is one hundred nnd four fret the solid portions of the vertebra are from H to lo inches in length, and Irom o to 14 inches in diameter, each averaging 75 pounds in weight Its greatly clongnted jaws are armed wttli not less than forty incisor or cutting teeih, four canine teeth or fangs, and eight molars or grinders. Theso teeth all fit into each other when the jaws are closed, and it is clear that tho animal was of the carnivorous nature. The eyes were evidently large, and were prominently ait im tod on the forehead, giving the animal tho power of keeping a constant and vigorous watch for ils prey. The body hod members attached resembling paddles or fins, which in proportion to Ihe size of Ihe animal wore small, and were doubtless intended to propel the body of this enormous creature through the wntcrs ot those large rivers or seas, which it inhabited or frequented. Each of these paddles or fins is composed of UL bones, which form in union, seven freely articulating joints. Tho ribs are of n very peculiar shape and execedinrz- ly numerous.

Including this river navigation and the rail ways soon to bo completed on the route, from Handuskv to Cin cinnati, from Savannah and Charleston to the northern bounds of Georgia, and the Hiwassec railroad from Georgia line to Knoxville in rennessco, two-thirds or three-fourths of the whole work will short ly be in successful operation. The only material obstacle iu the way ia the making of a road from rvnoxvuie to tnu fientucKy river. J he distnnco is 1117 miles, and the pass is through the Cumberland Gap. A tunnel will have to bo made about one mile through a sand rock formation which could ho easily pcnoraica. w mi this exception, tho whole route from Knoxville lo Slack Water navigation on the Kentucky is very favorable to tho construction of a railroad.

That slavery was only a State or local insti tution: That Slavery is batted on local laws, not sustained or supported by either moral, natural, or national law: 3. That if a slave escape from the State in which ho is hold in slavery, either by accident, consent or, nis mnntcr, or ngainn mat consent, ne is foruver free: 4. That the ordinance of 1787 orcan- ixing iho North Weslcrn Territory, only guarantees the delivering up ot fugitives from labor to citizens of the original States, and thttt as Missouri (from whence tho slaves escaped,) was not one of tho orig-nal States, Ihe citizens ol Indiana were not bound to dclivor up to M ifsfiii r i her runaway slaves."

Mr. Calhoun, like Mr. Clny and Mr. Webster, n fond of agricultural life; and, when not engaged in professional duties, he occupies himself on his estate at Fort Hill. About forty cultivated acres surround his mansion, and other sections of his grounds, according to the Express, aro occupied wuh cotton, corn, peas, end various other crops. He has drained his grounds, and introduced rotation of crops according to the report of a Com mitleo who visited it with an unexampled degree of success. The stock on his farm consisted of hogs, horses, aud cattle of good blood, and in excollent condition. His negro house ia a spacious stono building 200 feet long, divided into spacious and comfortable apartments. In nil parts of ins estate ha has blended the useful and ornamental, introducing admirable tillage with groat horticultural taste and benuty.
